Notes
Tips for Making Rainbow Bath Salts
You can add 10-20 drops of your favorite essential oil to each bowl, or a combination of harmonious oils. Be sure to stir these in well. By adding liquid, you may find you want to add a bit more mica powder to keep the vibrant colors. For more muted colors, use ¼ teaspoon of mica powder instead of ½ teaspoon. If your bath salts are clumping, you can spread them on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes in a 200 degree F oven. Then you can make a funnel with the parchment paper to add the salts to your jar.
